By Going No-download, Real Gaming Gives Players Wider Access
By Brian Cullingworth, Last updated Aug 22, 2014
South Point's online poker venture widely accessible
South Point Hotel, Casino & Spa's Real Gaming online poker offering is not among the pioneering sites to launch in the legalised Nevada market, but it claims it has an important advantage… it is the only operator to launch exclusively in no-download format, and that gives wider accessibility to players who rely on their mobile devices.
Using internally-developed technology, Real Gaming trailed pioneering Nevada online operations launched by Ultimate Gaming and Caesars, but due to its web-based nature it is more widely playable for punters with Mac, Linux, Android and iOS moble platforms in addition to the more common desktop and laptop options.
The no-download approach necessitated an innovative method of ID verification, achieved through a Real Gaming app on punters' mobile devices.
Company exec, Lawrence Vaughan, talked about his different approach recently, commenting: "At Real Gaming we strive to deliver new and innovative technologies for online poker players.
"The ability to play poker on any device at your convenience is new to the industry. It completely changes the poker experience and brings poker to a wider audience."

Infopowa news was a staple of Casinomeister’s news from 2000 until 2019. Brian Cullingworth was the main writer, contributor, and was one of the most knowledgeable persons I have ever known involved in the online casino industry.
We first met in January 2001 at the ICE in London where I observed him going booth to booth interviewing online casino, software, and licensing jurisdiction representatives. Brian was also heavily involved with our forum as “Jetset“, he was involved as an informal consultant to eCOGRA, the OPA, and was a player advocate who assisted countless aggrieved players with his connections to industry folks. He also published “Casino Cautions” via Infopowa news for quite a number of years. These can be found in our news archives.
His passing in February 2019 was a dark day for us. He will be forever missed.
